The way I remember it , the problem came up when Jack Douglass tried to order sets of replacement stripes and emblems from Yenko

Yenko ordered all the 1968 COPO 9737 Camaros as far as I know he received them all although at least one was sold new by another Chevy Dealer in PA.

Fred Gibb ordered all 50 of the 1968 COPO 9738 Chevy IIs to make them legal for NHRA

Things changed in 1969 as the other dealers wanted to order 427 COPO Camaros and Chevelles

In the MCR interview, Don said he had to pay to warranty the 427 COPO cars and said it turned out to be cheaper for him in the long run.
